Matthew’s Gospel ch27 vs27 – 45.
How to spend eternity in Heaven is simple and clear!
There is only the one way – through repentance and putting
one’s faith in The Lord Jesus Christ and His sacrificial work at Calvary ’s Cross.
Whether you have had a life of wealth or hardship does not
make any difference.
Spiritually, we have all had a bad start, and this is a
condition that God cares about deeply.
Our personal sins have greatly displeased God.
Society likes “make the punishment fit the crime”…
Quite rightly, a murderer is deemed to be far worse than
someone who has received a parking ticket.
However, ALL sin is abhorrent to God, who cannot sin and is
holy and pure.
Sin has to be punished.
Every one of us needs to be rescued and saved from the
penalty of our sins.
No one can ever do this by ourselves.
God the Father punished our sins when the sinless Lord Jesus
Christ took them all upon Himself on the Cross.
The eternal Son of God, in His great love for us left His
holy place in Heaven and came into our wicked world, to go to the Cross and pay
the price of all our sins.
This was a most remarkable demonstration of His love for all
people – dying in such agony – so that each one of us can be forgiven.
But His salvation has to be personally accepted!
The Lord Jesus Christ
was completely sinless and innocent – the only one who was able to be a holy
and acceptable sacrifice for the sins of the world.
Through accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour, you
can now have a relationship with God the Father, and a home in Heaven.
Some people say that Jesus Christ was defeated by just a mob
of people – but in no way is this true – the Cross of Jesus was always God’s
plan of salvation for mankind.
It was not the terrible things that these men did to Jesus
that forgives us from our sins, but the punishment that God poured out on Him
during the three hours of darkness that covered the land.
Friend, your own sins put Him on the Cross too, and He paid
them all.
If you had been the only one, He would still have gone
through it all just for you!
Nothing you may have done in the past will put you out of
reach of His forgiveness – only come in repentance now and accept Him.
One day, all of us will die, but our soul will live on
forever in eternity – fully conscious and remembering.
All will stand before God in judgement –
“And it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this
the judgement”. –
Hebrews ch9 vs27.
Avoid eternal punishment in Hell for unforgiven sins! –
Friend, accept salvation today through The Lord Jesus
Christ.
God’s seal of approval was shown in the raising of Jesus
Christ from the dead.
The Cross was a magnificent victory over the consequences of
our sins!
The only other alternative is to reject Jesus Christ and His
offer of free salvation…
It is the speaker’s responsibility to let each listener know
the outcome of this decision – Luke's Gospel ch16 tells us that a rich man rejected God
and went to Hell, being in torment.
He is still there now in that same condition, and will be for
evermore.
Jesus Christ warns us of this most awful place, where all
those are who have died without being forgiven of their sins.
Friend, recognise that you too are a sinner, and ask His
forgiveness.
Please do this as soon as possible – life is very uncertain
and fleeting.
Jesus Christ is returning for all that belong to Him and
taking them back to Heaven…
It may be tonight!
Are YOU ready?
Where will YOU spend eternity if He came tonight?
